A Teaser Video Clip

Each year, I create a compilation of video clips as a wrap-up to our season. I just finished this year's installment, and I thought that I would offer a little teaser to get everyone excited about the premerie on Sunday. Click on the photo of Luke to see the Teaser Clip.

2006-2007 Season Goals.

I have always thought that the goals we set for ourselves have a funny way of turning into reality. I will never forget Kevin Gorman climbing out of the pool after his 100 butterfly and walking over to the wall with our goals. He slapped the wall where his goal had been hanging all season. You may remember the vow (goal) that I made back in May 2005. At the time, it was pretty much a half-baked display of machismo, but we focused on that goal. In the end, it was our focus and committment that turned it into reality.

Here are the goals that I have outlined for next season. I would really like each one of you to respond with a comment that includes your goals for next season. Remember to leave your name. Parents and friends should feel free to post their goals too.

1) Win Sectionals
2) Score 12 Points at the State Swim Meet.
3) Qualify all three relays for the State Swim Meet.
4) Find and recruit 2 more highly talented assistant coaches.
5) Have the fastest school records in the area. (long term goal).
